How to play The Courage of an American Grandfather
You can work the whole thing out by playing it. It is a mouse-only game, so there is nothing to memorise on the keyboard — which is also why it feels native on a touchscreen. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. Expect the first attempt to be a write-off; that is normal here.
